Freeway Bolero Video (MV)

She took the freeway
From old downtown Rio
She knew he'd never think to look this way
In a silver Chevelle that had seen better days
She would make her getaway

She was a dancer in Copacabana
Sometimes even Leblon
But today could be her last day on earth
Cos something always goes wrong

Here she stands
Listening to My bolero
A gun in her hands
And a bag of her lover's dinheiro

She left from Rio
At one in the morning
Linha Vermelha in the rain
Where could she go
So that he would not find her
She'd never come back again

Rain on the windshield
Counting drops as they fall
Like blood that is weeping from a wound
She took the freeway
That would lead her to heaven
And she knew that she was doomed

Here she stands
Listening to My bolero
A gun in her hands
And a bag of her lover's dinheiro

Tropical storm
Tempestuous and warm
And blood it mixes with water
Don't carry that gun
You'll come undone
Like a lamb that goes to the slaughter


She took the freeway from old downtown Rio
But it did not go well
She felt like Thelma without her Louise
In that broken down Chevelle

She always thought she was smart
She was clever
But she knew she'd played her last hand
For when you run
When you carry a gun
It never turns out like you planned

Taffeta dress
Only the best
But for that there's a price to pay
Like blood from a wound
She knows that she's doomed
She took the freeway bolero

Like blood from a wound
She knows that she's doomed
Her life was a freeway bolero
Like blood from a wound
She knows that she's doomed
She took the freeway bolero
